pressure from Tomac in second. Things got close at the end, but Jett kept it under control and took the race win, going 4-1 for second on the night. He main - tains his points lead going into the season finale next week. "In the sand section, there was a lapper on the inside," Jett said after the second moto. "And there was another lapper there [outside], and he was cruising. So, I got screwed in that. The two seconds I had [over Tomac] shrunk quickly. And then that last, like, lap or two, was hectic. I was gassing it, I was sliding out in certain spots, and it was a wild last two laps. But we're happy to turn it around; I definite - ly wasn't going to suck on the start like I did the first one." Tomac grabbed a spot on the box in both motos and was credited third overall, despite 47 LEVI KITCHEN 10TH (5-12) 250SMX Levi Kitchen salvaged a top 10 after crashing on the opening lap of the second moto. "I didn't get the best start but worked my way up to fifth. In the second moto, I got a great start but came together with Haiden and went down. I feel like I'm improving every weekend. My speed is good, so we'll head into Vegas ready to send it and see what we can do." 24 RJ HAMPSHIRE 6TH (7-6) 450SMX RJ Hampshire battled his way to sixth and narrowly missed out on a top five in both motos. "I had good speed in moto one, but just a couple of mis- takes cost me a bit, but I felt good for it being my first kind of Supercross- type race on the 450. I was stoked on how everything felt, and I know that we'll continue to make progress. Sec- ond moto, again not a great start, but on a track that was hard to pass, it's decent that we're leaving here with a sixth place." MYOWNRACE VOLUME 62 ISSUE 37 SEPTEMBER 16, 2025 P73 A win in the first moto helped Hunter Lawrence claim the overall 450SMX victory and the double points payout. Jett Lawrence rode through the field in race one and later won the second 450SMX moto for second overall.
